Editorial Notes
References in TextThis part, referred to in subsec. (b), was in the original “this title” and was translated as reading “this subtitle”, meaning subtitle S of title III of Pub. L. 103–322, to reflect the probable intent of Congress. Section 13883 of title 42, referred to in subsec. (c), was omitted from the Code as obsolete.
Codification Section was formerly classified to section 13901 of Title 42, The Public Health and Welfare, prior to editorial reclassification and renumbering as this section.
